Fresh&fab on::The X-Factor 2008 {Week 2}
The Talent Show that Made Leona Lewis a global superstar is back! And I'm gonna be bringing you coverage, every single Sunday(or Monday). The results show takes place on Saturday and Britney Spears & Beyonce have both been confirmed performers on the show.
If you are unfamiliar with X-Factor, it's basically the UK's Equivalent to American Idol. But with a twist, the 12 contestants are split into 4 groups
Girls//Boys//Groups//Overs 25's
So, the Highlights.
This week was "Michael Jackson" themed. All the contestants had to pick a Michael Jackson song. Alexandra kept it safe with "Ill Be There", I thought she did a god job, I love her voice looking forward to more of her.
Next up, is a Boy Band called "JLS", They sang " and I'm surprised on how good they did. They performed the hell out of the song, and actually sounded quite good, a bit pitchy at places, but overall it was really enjoyable.
My last favorite was one of the boys, Austin, he sang "Billie Jean" and absolutely tore it apart. I knew he was a great vocalist, but not as good as this. He did a really good job, he was actually my favorite of the night.
My other 2 favorites Laura and Rachel, didn't impress me at all this week, what a shame, but I'm still rooting for them still, so lets hope next week shapes up well for them. You can watch the others here.
